Using the tuner

Listening to the radio

The following steps show you how to tune in to
FM and AM radio broadcasts.
1 Press TUNER then press BAND to select
the tuner band.
2 Tune to a station.
There are four ways to do this:
Automatic tuning – Press and hold /
for about a second. Searching
automatically stops at the next station.
Manual tuning – To change the frequency
one step at a time, press /.
High speed tuning – Press and hold /
continuously.
Direct access – Use the number buttons to
enter the frequency (For example, to tune
to 106.00 (FM), press 1, 0, 6, 0, 0).
If the TUNED or STEREO indicators don't light
when tuning to an FM station because the
signal is weak, press the MPX button to switch
the receiver into mono reception mode. This
should improve the sound quality and allow
you to enjoy the broadcast.

Saving station presets

This receiver can memorize up to 30 stations,
stored in three banks of 10 stations each.
1 Tune to a station you want to memorize
then press T.EDIT.
The display shows ST. MEMORY, then a
blinking memory class.
Note
1 If you make a mistake halfway through, press D.ACCESS twice to cancel the frequency and start over.
2 When saving an FM frequency, the MPX setting is also stored.
2 Press CLASS to select one of the three
classes then press / to select the station
preset you want.
3 Press ENTER to store the station.

Naming station presets

3 Input the name you want then press ENTER.

characters, and ENTER to confirm. If no
